Manage Access & Compliance
Reporting
Overwhelmed by reporting deadlines? MDA will work closely with your business and IT staff to analyze and select ALL the required data you need to report to the exchanges within the reporting windows. MDA will aggregate and validate all of your entitlement reports and accurately report data to the exchanges. Whether you have a reporting process or not, MDA will validate your reporting process and ensure you’re reporting all of the correct information, all of the correct data, and all by the exchange’s date.
Compliance Usage
MDA understands just how difficult these exchange policies can be. While you may believe you are compliant, one missed rule and the exchange can end up fining you thousands and thousands of dollars. Thankfully, MDA is familiar with all of the exchange policies and has an elite understanding of how they need to be implemented within your environment. MDA is successful in mitigating noncompliance use of the data long before that audit arrives, and we tirelessly analyze how your company utilizes data in order to properly match the compliance to your data needs–thus preventing you from overpaying for any data that may be redundant.
